Musee Transitoire – Paris

From October 10th to 31st, the Musee Transitoire founded by Romina Shama held its inaugural exhibition «I would prefer not to» in Paris in a disaffected garage.

Romina Shama was joined by sound artist Amandine Casadamont as the curators of this first exhibition. The title of this first exhibit, «I would prefer not to», evokes Bartleby, the enigmatic character from Melville’s eponymous short story, who one day decides that he will no longer «do» .

The text I wrote for the opening of the exhibition refers to the Bergsonian approach of the Musee Transitoire.
